Drive to Marahau

We rented a car in Blenheim and drove, through the mountains, on the left side of the road, to Marahau, which is the gateway to Abel Tasman Park. The drive was beautiful, but a bit stressful as we haven’t driven on the left side of the road in three years. We made it safely. We are staying 4 nights in a beautiful Airbnb property within walking distance of the ocean, where all of the action is. We’ve booked two hikes in the park. A water taxi will drop us off at a beach inside the park. From there, we will walk on trails to another beach where we meet another water taxi to bring us back to Marahau. One walk is 7.8 km, & the other is 7.1 km. We plan to take our time, and enjoy the scenery along the way. We need to pack our own food, & water. The AM drop off times are booked for Sunday, so we decided to schedule these walks for the Monday and Tuesday. We plan to shop for provisions, & walk locally tomorrow.Leer más
